Frequently Asked Questions

When is a Landlord PAN mandatory on a rent receipt for HRA claims?

Under CBDT Income Tax rules, if your annual rent payment exceeds ₹1,00,000 (approximately ₹8,333 per month), it is mandatory to report your landlord's Permanent Account Number (PAN) to your employer to claim HRA tax exemption under Section 10(13A).

When is a Revenue Stamp required on a rent receipt?

Under the Indian Stamp Act, if rent is paid in CASH and the transaction amount exceeds ₹5,000, a ₹1 revenue stamp must be affixed across which the landlord signs. For digital transfers (UPI, NEFT, IMPS) or cheques, an affixed revenue stamp is not strictly mandatory, although having landlord acknowledgment remains essential.

Can I generate receipts for multiple months or quarterly periods?

Yes. You can specify single months (e.g. October 2026) or quarterly billing periods (e.g. Q1 FY 2026-27 / April - June) based on your employer's HR payroll submission guidelines.
